"Francisco has to be the best service contractor of any trade. Very HONEST, responsive and great quality work. We had several other basement waterproof system contractors out, and all were clueless or gave inaccurate information. Francisco's knowledge and expertise was impressive. Now, after several months and heavy rains, the basement remains perfectly dry. We called Francisco back for some minor cosmetic sealing, and he responded perfectly again, on a weekend day. You won't regret calling Francisco"

"The workers were outrageously good. The guy that did the estimate was under what it should have been and it cost us double the amount, but the guys who did the work were fabulous and made it work. It cost more, but the basement does not have a smell or anything, so I can't blame them for it. They were done in a week. I was embarrassed, there wasn't a speck of dirt when they were done. It was clean as a whistle, and it wasn't like that when they walked in. They were really good. They recommended an electrician, and so even if they didn't do some part, they support you and help you find them. They check up and make sure everything is okay. They call back every time you call them. They did a great job."

"

In Savannah, we were having a wet fall and winter and were experiencing moisture problems in our house.  Our dehumidifier could not keep up with the problem.  My wife smelled a musty smell which she thought was mildew.  When we first contacted crawlspacedoctor.com, they set up a consultation for us that same week.  Greg McBride came out and went over all the problems he found as well as solutions he recommended that would solve the problems.

He gave us an estimate of time & costs and said it would be 3 weeks before he could get a crew to us.  However, since my wife was having allergic reactions to the moisture & mildew smells, she had to move out of the house until the job was completed.  So Greg rearranged his schedule and was able to get a crew to our house within a week.  They showed up as promised on a Monday morning and worked full days until the job was done that Friday.

They removed the existing plastic liner which was not doing its job.  They cleaned out debris, hung wires and graded the dirt in the crawl space.  Then they blocked off the open foundation areas with 2 inch foam board, sealing in each board with 2/2 pressure treated wooden slats.  Then they sealed each board with closed cell foam.

They also cleaned up the floor joist using full sanding & microban antimicrobial to help fully sanitize the floor joist.  Then they installed 15 mill white heavy duty liner, completely sealing up the house from the crawl space with each seam taped and all walls and columns sealed.

Then they installed 2 new crawl space doors using pressure treated lumber and galvanized handles and latches. The final crawl space ended up looking like a finished basement and will be ventilated by a heat duct line that we will install to keep moisture out.  The "after" pictures on their website reflect our finished product too.

We were very happy with the quality of the workmanship and the professionalism of Greg and his crew.  We would highly recommend them to anyone who has moisture problems in their crawl space.  The work carries a 20 year warranty on the liner and labor and Greg guaranteed the musty smells we were experiencing would be eliminated.  And they were. The house now smells great and all allergy problems have disappeared.

"Our home was built in 1968 and has a very, very small crawl space. Prior to purchasing in 2014, there was a high moisture content noted by a home inspector and on the CL-100 that was not mitigated correctly by the previous owner. After moving in and recognizing there was still an issue, we had Clemson Extension come and inspect our crawl space, as well as three other basement/foundation companies. None of the other inspections were as thorough or complete as the one we got from Paul at Crawl Space Medic. Not only was he able to more thoroughly diagnose our issues under the house (which were many), but he explained the steps for mitigation, never tried to sell us anything that we did not need, and worked with us as each issue arose. First, the Crawl Space Medic crew had to excavate the entire crawl space of our home, which they did in the worst cold snap of the year. Regardless of the horrible working conditions, they were there early, stayed late, were respectful of our home at all times, and stayed on schedule despite the hardships of weather. Once the excavation was done and the full extent of the damages we were facing was assessed, we worked with Jon and Paul on developing the best game plan to repair the damage to our foundation and mitigating our moisture control issues. In fact, the french drain/sump pump was a line item on our estimate until they were 100% sure that it was needed. When the french drain was installed, they made sure that it drains inconspicuously and does not flood our landscaping every time it rains, which is a truly professional installation. Once we began work on the major repairs to the house, which included tearing the floor out of a bathroom for much of their project, they made sure our house was kept neat, that we were not inconvenienced as home owners, and that our repairs were done correctly and thoroughly. Every day, they let me know when they would arrive and when they left, and also let me know what time to expect them the next morning. Since we had to essentially replace an entire bathroom, they coordinated with our schedule and with our contractor on scheduling their portion of the work with the rest of our renovation. They made what could have been a horrible experience much easier! 

I would not have anyone else handle my foundation and crawl space repairs. We have had other contractors under the house, and we have gone under the house, since Crawl Space Medic's crew completed their work and everyone is impressed with the quality of the repairs. This was an extremely difficult job which they did beyond all expectations. In addition, after having other similar contractors come out and try to sell me on systems that we don't need and on remedies that would not work, Crawl Space addressed the elements of our problem individually, didn't try to sell me on anything we did not need, and went above and beyond on the quality of their repair. Other contractors simply marry new wood to existing to repair foundations - Crawl Space Medic actually removed all the damaged materials and put in new materials under our house. 

I highly, highly recommend Crawl Space Medic. Their entire team is beyond professional, and quite simply, they are the best in the business, bar none. I will not buy another home without letting them inspect my crawl space, and if we should need their services again, they are the only company I will ever call!"

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

Waterproofing your Aiken basement offers immediate benefits like eliminating musty odors, reducing mold risk, and making the space usable year-round. Over time, you’ll protect your home’s foundation from shifting clay soils, improve indoor air quality, and increase property value. A properly waterproofed basement also attracts buyers and helps your home withstand Aiken’s unpredictable weather and heavy rainfall.

Helpful?

Before starting a basement waterproofing project in Aiken, schedule a professional inspection and soil analysis to identify specific vulnerabilities. Select contractors with experience in local soil and drainage conditions, and secure all necessary permits and HOA approvals. Mark underground utilities before digging, plan work for drier months, and communicate with neighbors if excavation is involved. Preparing your landscaping for disruption can also help prevent unexpected setbacks.

Helpful?

In Aiken, it’s important to consider local permit requirements for excavation and any setback rules that might apply. The area’s clay soil, sloped lots, and mature landscaping can influence drainage solutions and foundation stability. If you live near a creek or in a historic district, additional environmental or design restrictions may apply. Seasonal contractor availability and material delivery times can also impact your project timeline.

Helpful?

In Aiken, homeowners often underestimate the effects of clay soil and start projects during wet months, which can delay progress. Focusing only on interior fixes while neglecting exterior drainage is another frequent error. Failing to get proper site assessments, skipping required permits, or not checking HOA guidelines can result in setbacks. Hiring unqualified contractors also risks incomplete waterproofing and future foundation issues.

Helpful?

If your Aiken home has persistent dampness, musty smells, or efflorescence on basement walls, it’s likely time to consider basement waterproofing. Homes built on clay-rich soil or in flood-prone neighborhoods are especially vulnerable. Watch for peeling paint, visible cracks after storms, or mold growth—these are clear signs that moisture control and improved drainage are needed to protect your foundation.
